Radioactive Aerosols within Conditions of the New Safe Confinement in 2017–2020
Nuclear Power and the Environment, 2021 The results of monitored behavior of radioactive aerosols within the conditions of the New Safe Confinement (NSC) in 2017–2020 are presented. Maximum “unorganized” flux of beta-emitting products of the Chornobyl accident from the Shelter object through the process openings and leakages of light roofing in the NSC basic volume observed in 2017 made 7.9 ...

Radioactive Aerosols under Conditions of New Safe Confinement in 2018
Nuclear Power and the Environment, 2020 The results of monitoring of radioactive aerosols emissions from the Shelter object in 2018 are given. The maximum value of «unorganized» release rate was observed in November and was 4.6 kBq/(m2 ∙ day). The completion of construction and sealing of the enclosing contours of the New safe confinement (NSC) in 2018 completely limited the influence of ...

Nuclear Power and the Environment, 2022 The New Safe Confinement (NSC) is a facility that protects the environment from radioactive aerosols (RA) during the extraction of radioactive materials. However, it is not able to provide complete insulation of the internal volume, therefore, to reduce the damage.
